1) Do they rely on bog standard scart or do they have a proper component connection I can plumb into my Denon AV3801?

2) Presumably they do support TOS or Coaxial digital audio

3) When you record a programme is it clever enough to kill off the adverts or does it record the lot

4) Where's the cheapest place right now to get a reasonable box and installation, I think i have seen it on the sky site for £99, free installation, and no fee as long as subcribed to more than one premium channel.http://www.ordersky.com/equipment/skyplus.asp

Component has it's uses on DVD players that can output progressive scan and DVD's use exactly the same compression as SKY's broadcasts so in that regard the material being transferred is irrelevant

I would say component is just a more convienent method when integrating AV gear especially when using an amp for switching, not many amps with scart inputs and after all RGB and component are not that different in what they are doing.
